Do you live in a household with a low-income? The City of Kingston's Municipal Fee Assistance Program offers low-income households access to discounted monthly Kingston Transit passes, recreation subsidies and vouchers to assist with the cost of spay/neutering pets. The program begins accepting 2015 applications on Monday, Jan. 5.

"The Municipal Fee Assistance Program supports residents to ensure that cost is not a barrier to accessing the many great programs and services offered by the City of Kingston," says Mayor Bryan Paterson.
